BEDROOM LIES
By Dave Eisenstark

GENRE: Thriller, Action
LOGLINE:

A young woman returns home to prove she didn't kill her mother...and to take her dad for all he's worth.

SYNOPSIS:

Janice Wornall is a sleepwalker who has no idea what she's capable of on her nightly journeys. Consequently, her life's a mess: she sleeps chained to her bed, her gay roommate isn't gay, and at a garage sale, she finds the carving knife she may have used to kill her mother.

Janice is compelled to head home to learn the truth. Did she kill her mother when she was ten, or did she just take the blame?

At the farmhouse of her youth, Janice squares off with her father, Roland. She suspects he's lured her back and--propelled by his endless greed--plans to use her once again.

To her horror, Janice is right. Roland's new wife is stabbed in similar circumstances to Janice's mother...

But this time Janice won't take the blame. She tricks her father into incriminating himself and revealing the hiding place of his precious fortune. Guns blazing, in tandem with with Roland's latest victim, Janice takes it all and reclaims her life in the process.
